Sinossi

This book explores the collaborative and interwoven world of male and female Quaker autobiographers in the late seventeenth century. Using cultural semiotics as a guiding framework, it reveals how spiritual experience and self-representation emerge through mutual influence, shared narrative patterns, and active participation across texts. Voices intertwine, echo, and reinforce one another, creating a collective literary space in which gendered perspectives enrich and shape spiritual expression. By highlighting this cooperative dynamic, the study offers fresh insights into Quaker life writing and opens new venues for understanding early modern autobiography, spirituality, and infracultural exchange.
